THE FRAMING OF THE CONSTITUTION.
Inc Last Lecture of the Historical Course for
Young People Delivered Yesterday.

Inc last lecture in the series of the young peo-
pies historical course was delivered at Ply
mouth Church yesterday by Rev. John Baltzly,
on the Constitutional Convention of 1857"
The speaker said that the state of affairs in
America Immediately after the revolution was
disastrous to the welfare of society and govern
ment. and the tendency was toward anarchy
Inc people foresaw this tendency and felt the
necessity OF union, and, although the effort TO
call constitutional convention was at first un-
successful, the personal efforts of Washington,
Madison and others bore fruit in the conven-
ton, the result of which made each mem
Der OF 1t immortal He said that
the people, as in all other national movements.
looked to Washington as the chief, and that he
responded with all the patriotism and ardor of
MS nature He then spoke. specifically, of the
necessities in each of the States and the country
as whole for a constitution for the basis of its
government and gave outline Of the labors of
the convention from its call to its adjournment,
or the difficulties to be surmouuted and delays
to be undergone, and of the patriotism and senti-
ment displayed ny it's members. He said that
this convention was the first body of men in the
world to denounce slavery and the slave trade,
although they did not, By the Constitution, for
DID the owning of slaves in this country.
Inc course has been successful one and the
management promise third series next year.

ADVANCES IN THE PRICES OF DRUGS.
The Remarkable Effect War Rumors Are
Having on the Medicine Market.

War rumors and preparation for war among
the great European powers have already had the
effect to advance the price of number of drugs
and chemicals The advance in carbolic acid
from twenty eight cents pound to sixty cents a
pound is attributable probably to its employ
ment in large quantities by the French in the
manufacture of their new explosive. Opium
and its products are advancing. the rise being
partly due to war rumors. There has been an ad
vance OF % per cent. in quinine, which may be
explained on another hypothesis. For time
there has been an over production of quinine
barks, and the price of bark became much
duced that many of the plantations have given
up its production, and putting the soil to
other uses. This has had the effect to raise the
price again. The advance in the price of saiicine
is remarkable. Within ten days it has gone up
from So pound to $40 pound. One house has
cornered buchu leaves, having succeeded in
getting nearly all in sight, and will raise the
price to whatever figure it sees fit
There interesting stories connected with
some Of these rises in the prices of staple drugs
few years ago it was discovered that one house
had quietly cornered all the saffron, and the
price was advanced three or four hundred per
cent. At the time General Newton was getting
ready to blow Helgate up chorate of potash
which was used by the engineers in great guam
tity. suddenly advanced to more than double its
price. After the explosion it came down again
almost as suddenly as it had gone up.

DRIVEN INSANE BY FRIGHT.
A Woman's Terrible Experience with
Tramps Wrecks Her Mind.
Her Condition Causes Her Husband to Be-
come Raying Maniac-Both Are Sent
to the Indiana Insane Hospital.

Confined in the Insane Hospital are a man
and wife. about whom there is a remarkably
pathetic story, which has been suppressed until
now by friends. The couple are Mr.. and
Mrs. w. w. Raubb Mrs. Raubb is
the daughter of Cyrus Allen, q
wealthy commission merchant at Chicago.
Until recently Mr.. Raubb was a dealer in real
estate and an extensive stock raiser. at Chal-
mers, Ind. Last November he was absent from
home on business trip, when gang of tramps
visited his house, where his wife was
alone. What followed is not definitely
known 1t is believed the tramps threatened to
murder Mrs. Raubb if she did not disclose where
her husbands money was concealed. Early the
next morning she was found mile distant from
her house, wildly beating upon the door of her
brother-in-law's house. The poor woman was
clad only in nightdress. She was numb with
cold, and was raving maniac.
A telegram was sent to her husband, calling
him home, and when he came there was a sad
scene. He took Mrs. Raubb to her fathers
home in Chicago, where she apparently re-
covering, when one night she managed to escape
from the house. Meeting her husband she ran
at him like a wild beast, and bit him fearfully on
the hand and shoulder. For a time after the
paroxysms the wife seemed better.
The shock was too much for the distracted
husband, and two days after he too, became a
raving maniac. He was not very violent and
was left unmolested. Two weeks ago he caused
the arrest of his wife and mother for insanity,
but dismissed the case few weeks before the
trial was called and then disappeared. All efforts
by his friends and relatives to find him were
futile, until last Monday, when he
was discovered at Danville, Ill.,, a physical and
moral wreck. Last Saturday he was brought to
the asylum here by his relatives. and was ac-
cepted and committed as insane Thursday his
wife was also brought from Chicago and placed
in the institution

REPRlMANDED BY THE COURT.
Spirited Exchange of Words, Yesterday, Be-
tween Judge Walker and Attorney Spahr.

There was a somewhat spirited exchange Of
words, yesterday, between Judge Walker. of the
Superior Court, and George W. Spahr, the at
torney. Mr. Spahr represented Mrs. Mary
Beniger in her suit for damages against the
Equitable Trust Company. which has been
on trial two days in Judge Walkers room.
The jury was instructed Thursday afternoon,
and at the time Mr. Spahr took exceptions to
the Instructions He said nothing then in open
court, but after the jury had gone out talked TO
the judge privately about the matter. and ex
pressed himself rather vigorously. The Judge &C
corded him gentlemanly hearing, but would not
allowed himself to be influenced. The court
room was we'll filed with attorneys and specta-
tors yesterday morning. when the baiff brought
the jury in for further instructions The judge
read the instructions of the previous day, with
some explanations, and had directed the bailiff
to return them to their room. when Mr.. Spahr, as
some of those present assert, said: Hold
on, that is not the law" although
he denies having used any such words.
However he begun to say something further,
when Judge Walker interrupted him with: That
is the law, and the only instruction that will be
given. govern the jury. The oailiffs will take
them to their room" Mr.. Spahr was much ex
cited, and rose to personal explanation, but
again interrupted by the Judge, who gave
him very pointed lecture. He told him he
had exercised great deal of familiarity, and
had always been accorded more privileges than
any other attorney at the bar, but the Judge
wanted him to understand that the rights Of the
court had to be respected. He proposed to see
that every attorney exercised proper decorum in
his room, and Mr.. Spahr would be made no ex
ception to the rule. Mr. Spahr attempted an
other explanation, but was stopped by
the Judge. who told him he knew what
had transpired, and didn't want to have any ex-
PLANTATION. The Judge then withdrew to his
private room and left Mr.. Spahr without an au-
dience Spahr then grew very wrathy, and he
finally withdrew from the room greatly excited
